General Information
By buying from me, you agree to my terms of service here. This goes for art, animations, advertisements, logos and any other service I offer. I know this is long but please read through it, it's very important.
Use my email for communication purposes [email protected] only commission questions please (you can DM me on instagram and discord). Take a look at my weekday hours, I will only respond within those time frames. So if you send me a message Saturday I will not respond to it until Monday. If you ask your questions anywhere else, I will either not respond or ask you if you can send this to my email. This helps me stay organized so I don't have to waste time searching for information. Be sure to send me a reference image of your character. I will not accept your commission if you don't reference image to send me.
My commissions can take anywhere from a week to four months. Time amounts vary between commission types. You can find the average time taken on the corresponding page of the commission you are ordering. I will keep you updated on the progress of your order and if I have an emergency such as school, work, or personal life slowing the progress.
Please only ask for updates after one week. This applies unless you have an advertisement or logo which requires constant communication due to the design process. I usually have a week (or two week) break after opening commissions for me to settle down and prepare my commissions/organize my commissions.
Please do not be aggressive with me, threaten me, or become angry with me if I haven't responded or if I haven't finished your commissions yet. Please just send me another email and wait for me to respond, I promise I will get to you! Please don't spam my email though, as this only makes it more difficult to find your emails.
If I become sick, I will have to take a break from doing any sort of commission work as it could lower the quality of my work. I will have updates like these on my social media (primariy instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cheysketches/ )
I open commissions through Instagram and Deviantart (https://www.deviantart.com/cheysketches ) at the same time.
Once I have started on an art commission do not ask me to change the character or the design of your order in it’s entirety. You may ask if you can if you have sold that particular character or have a minor addition or change. Other than that, please do not ask to change anything about your commission after the form is filled out unless you contact me the day of submission. I want you to be as happy as possible with your commission and that is very difficult with major design changes.
I may post personal artwork in between commissions. I do this to release stress which keeps up the quality of my artwork and allows me to improve.
Commission prices are based off the time it takes me to complete that type of commission. This isn’t the case for logos due to it being the face of your brand and having a much more involved and active design process. (my process is described more clearly under the logo tab)
-IMPORTANT NOTICE- It does not matter where you post the artwork or product you receive you must credit me with the creation of it! This means crediting me in descriptions, videos, or conversations containing or pertaining to artwork.
Payment Method
I use PAY-PAL only! - USD
I don't accept payment plans unless it's a video commission. I will not be starting the commission until you pay completely though.
If you don't send the payment within 48 hours of me contacting you, I will give your slot to someone else.
Refund Policy
After a month goes by and haven't started or finished the commission (due to commission type), you are allowed to ask for a refund.You cannot ask for a refund after your artwork is finished. If you request a refund after work has started you will not receive any art, even if I am almost done, I will throw it in the trash. If you charge me back though paypal you will be blacklisted. At that point you would be stealing art and stealing from me. Other's will be notified of your actions through my various social medias to prevent further incidents.
My Rights as an Artist
I Will NOT Draw
Blacklisting:
If I blacklist you I will not publicly shame you unless you charge me back. I will put your name on my blacklist, but no information will be given out publicly. This does not apply to those who steal and/or resell my products.
DO NOT heavily reference or copy my art and designs! Feel free to use my poses as reference, and reference my style, but please do not copy. Especially do not copy any of my designs! I will contact you if I'm concerned about heavily referencing and give you a warning. If I see it happen again, I will notify you and blacklist you. Fan art is ABSOLUTELY okay as long as you credit me properly! (tag me and put me in the description as the owner of the characters)
DO NOT TRACE ANY OF MY WORK! This results in you being immediately blacklisted.
When I blacklist you, I will add you to my list and you will no longer be able to purchase from me.
Permissions/Thievery Prevention
If receiving a design, please make sure to put a watermark of your own over it or some type of protection from thieves.
You may NOT use my art commercially/make money off of my art! This goes for putting my art on merch. (Logos and advertisements are the exception of course as they are for a different purpose)
How to Order a Commission
To order a commission please DM me on instagram or if you do not have an account on there discord works perfectly fine too. A basic format for ordering is as follows (I'm human so don't worry it'll be a pleasant conversation)
1. Type of commission you are looking for
2. Picture of Character's ref sheet
3. Additional details or references (poses, backgrounds, shading amount and style, additional thoughts, I'll even do other lineart styles)
I'll get back to you as soon as possible to confirm the price and other details. Don't worry I will answer any questions you have as well.
